    Waterer for button quail

    Hi guys, I was trying out different waterer for my button quail. Because they either soils my bedding or get pooped on so much the mixture is just disgusting.

    Sexing button quail

    Hi! I need help sexing some of my 6 week old button quail. I can tell the roosters with the bibs easily, but I have these blue black ones without bibs. They had reddish feathers, but hard to tell if they are tail vs vent feathers. What do you think? Thanks for your help

    Really, really random question...

    Hello! I was wondering if buttons needed/use toys. I often find my quail re-arranging his tank. He grabs anything he finds. Almost like he's decorating. Is it crazy to give him "toys"
